  • Publication number: 20030193214
    Abstract: A tailored blank article and a manufacturing method thereof, which is used for partitioning an inside and an outside such as a dashboard panel for partitioning an engine room of a car body and the inside of a car room. A thick plate blank and a thin plate blank are joined by a mash-seam welding or a laser welding, and are subjected to a pressing. Thereby, the thin plate blank is bent until an inner surface of the thin plate blank is made flush or almost flush with an inner surface of the thick plate blank, subsequently, a connection part having a portion connected over a welding portion is connected to at least one of an outer surface and the inner surface of the tailored blank article comprising the thick plate blank and the thin plate blank, and then an entire tailored article including the connection part is coated.

  • Patent number: 5766594
    Abstract: Antigen proteins of Mycoplasma gallisepticum, genes encoding the antigen protein, recombinant vectors integrated with the gene and hosts transformed with the vector are provided. Diagnostics and vaccine using the antigen protein produced by such hosts are effective for poultry, especially chicken infected with Mycoplasma gallisepticum. Vaccination can maintain poultry free of Mycoplasma gallisepticum infection.
